Commission Information
6 years ago
General
Pricing:
Prices have been increased to 1 USD / 100 words. I'll offer discounts for ideas that I really enjoy / repeat clients I've gotten to know longer term / at my own discretion. All stories over 25K words are now subject to a flat additional charge of 50 USD because of the additional time and effort longer stories require.
Payment for first time clients is half up front, half at completion. I will be more flexible with payment options after I've worked with a client several times with no major problems. Payment is in USD. Please ensure you pay in USD and do not send me "approximate" amounts in other currencies, thank you.
I will ask for your feedback on the draft after it's complete: if there are any problems with the story I'll rewrite those scenes free of charge or make any other appropriate edits. I will do a second editing/polish run free of charge as well. After I've completed the second editing run, further small edits - word choice, sentence restructure, spellcheck-related - I'll be more than happy to do at any time, but any larger edits will incur additional charges.
All commissions should be handled by one party: if I have to send the story to multiple parties and get all of their approvals, then I will charge up to double my base price. This is because it can be extremely hard for people to coordinate what they want: if I have to recheck and rewrite a story multiple times over because Party A thinks Character A should be a flirt, and Party B thinks Character A should be shy and reserved, it becomes almost impossible to write what both people want, and in almost every case I've dealt with this, one of the parties had gotten upset with the other, abandoned the project, and left them holding the full bill.
If you want to commission a story alongside a friend, please discuss your ideas fully with each other first, and please only have one person act as contact and negotiator.
I will write One Shot stories for you at a standard price of 10$. These stories will be 1000-2000 words long, will have no editing, and cover basically one or two scenes.
Tips and/or covering Paypal fees are appreciated but not necessary.
Terms of Service:
Don't be a dick or I'll cancel you and keep whatever money you've paid me. The end.
For the fretful or overserious, "being a dick" refers to constantly complaining about how long I'm taking to write your story, whining about how I got this or that word wrong, telling things like "oh it could be better but I guess this is okay," telling me that I didn't write something correctly but then refusing to tell me what you actually wanted or other things people who like to call the manager say when there's no manager to call and no discount to be had, and, in general, well, being a dick.
Being a dick does not include asking for clarification on something, asking occasionally for updates, or telling me what I did incorrectly/if you'd prefer something else when I ask you for edits or suggests. I appreciate someone who works with me and tells me what and where I can improve things for them. You are paying me for a service and I wish to provide the best possible service for you.
What Will You Write?
I will write any kink, any fictional story, any scene involving any characters. I do not have any limits as to the content you request.
I will not write nonfiction or do your homework assignments for you.
If you want me to write a story that requires any level of research, there may be a surcharge.
If I do not feel I can properly write a story for you, I will respectfully turn you down.
If I get any sense that you have no intention of paying me or are trying to flatter a free story out of me, I will politely turn you down, and if you whine or complain excessively I will mock and belittle you.
I will very occasionally take requests and these will be announced in journals. Please do not request free stories unless I have stated I am open for requests.
Finished Product
You are free to repost the story as you see fit.
You are free to edit the story yourself as you see fit.
I may or may not repost the story in my gallery. If you want to make sure I post it, please tell me so and I'll set a reminder for myself, otherwise I frequently forget.
If you want the story changed by me at any point for any reason, please let me know and I will be happy to rewrite or modify any part of the story for a small fee.
Commission Schedule
I can often only write three or four days a week due to my schedule, and even then only for a few hours each day. Commissions can take between one day and several weeks due to this, so please be patient. I will let you know once I've started working on your commission and I am happy to update you as frequently as you would like. I do not always do commissions in the order I receive them.
I think that's everything. Let me know if you have any questions/comments/concerns and I'll respond and update accordingly.

FA+

I am curious as to what exactly counts as "research" for the surcharge though?
And I figured I should clarify that, I just then got distracted. It refers largely to fanfiction, or when other people want me to continue a story they've already had someone else write. Some people have asked me in the past to read stories that exceed 100 pages, or watch an entire season of a show just so I can "get a character right" when I write a story for them, things like that. That's asking a little too much of me to do without some kind of compensation, since I could be using that time to tackle another commission for someone else.
I look forward to working with you someday too. I definitely need to come up with an idea.
Thanks for clarifying the research. I thought it'd be something like that. It's completely understandable. I'm honestly surprised that people have asked you to go through that.
